to:Fall Career Management, 12th, 4

What a great introduction to Career Management last week. We had good discussions about how our values, interests and abilities can lead us to meaningful careers. I think some of you discovered some careers that you had never heard of or thought of before. This brings us right into week 2!

This week I will be introducing a Career Research Project that will take a couple of weeks for us to complete. This project is all-inclusive. It will include researching careers, writing a business letter, using the internet to find information, using classified ads, and interviewing skills. It will conclude with a class presentation. We will discuss more about all this tomorrow in class. Here is a quick overview.
